Martial Arts/Ninja camp in Thailand

[JasePr]

I heard there was a Live in martial arts/ninja camp in Thailand . Does anyone know anything about it?

The only camps I know of in Thailand are Muay Thai camps. I don't know about the Ninja one.

Welcome to the Forums!

You heard right, but I don't know anything about it. I'll pass on a link though then you can check it out yourself.

As far as I know, there is not a single person that can authentically prove their lineage in ninjitsu without a lot of leaps of faith. The last person who could authenticate his claims died nearly 50 years ago. This looks like a money making thing.

I agree. There could b a camp in thailand but more than likely its a money thing. There r only a handful of people that can teach legit Ninjutsu. I have a friend that lives in thailand, ill ask him if he knows anything about it and if there is any merit of such school, he will know. ill get back to u on this.

I don't think this camp claims to teach authentic ninjutsu. He basically says he created this martial art in his backyard when he was a kid. But hey, you get to go repelling and/or climbing, so it's probably fun!

While I think this is probably a money-making deal... does one have to authenticate a lineage in ninjitsu to make them a ninja?

Can any Kung Fu art show a direct lineage from Bodhidharma? Or Pankration to Theseus? What makes an art legit?

As i believe the above posters have touched on, couldn't this be said about many martial artists. There are many martial artists that even though have no lineage to any significant founder of that art, have through research started practicing an art in the same tradition as its founders. I don't see how you can discredit a person for the soul fact that they cannot trace their lineage back to a certain person.
